For what it's worth, if you use the DINS website you can get NOTAMs for a certain nautical mile radius around an airport. Don't go nuts with it or you'll get 1,000 airports, but it might be useful for sudden diverts.

It's not ignorance, it's medical science. People smarter than me have determined that certain mental disorders make the sufferer a danger to themselves and others. We need to keep those people and everyone else safe by limiting their access to firearms.

And regardless of what you think, there are still mental disorders that make the sufferer more dangerous to themselves and others than other more benign mental disorders. Those people should not be given ready access to firearms.

Yes, people who are not diagnosed with any mental disorder can still be dangerous. But if medical science can diagnose someone with a dangerous mental disorder, they should not be given access to a firearm.

After a certain C-130 accident a few years ago that thankfully didn't take any lives, I feel like runway shortening and other maintenance should be communicated in every which way possible. NOTAMs, chart updates, radio commercials, etc.

The DINS website has a feature where you can put in an ICAO and a nautical mile radius within which it will return every airfield's as well as center NOTAMs. The list can get a bit long though if you get too nuts with it.

I'd say the system that we have in place right now effectively keeps firearms out of people with dangerous mental disorders. Other than those people (and, you know, felons, etc.) anybody should be able to buy a gun.
